Since 2011, ISCP has hosted an institution-in-residence as part of Open Studios. This annual residency was initiated to support cultural exchange by bringing an international perspective into a local context. This year, ISCP has invited Video Bureau, a not-for-profit organization established in 2012 in Beijing and Guangzhou, that provides a platform to exhibit, organize and archive video art. During Open Studios and through May 23, Video Bureau will be in residence at ISCP. New York-based independent curator Howie Chen travelled to China to research Video Bureau’s archives, resulting in The Poplar Treeand Mirror. The video works included in this exhibition concern social causality in contemporary Chinese and global culture at large. Chains of events are set in motion everyday: a decision is made, an action performed, and the contingent effects are registered on others. How does one negotiate these effects, especially when transformative political and economic forces drive them?
